What is the difference between surgical abortion and medical terminations?
A surgical termination occurs when a doctor (or other qualified health care provider) removes a pregnancy from the uterus. The doctor numbs the cervix (opening of the uterus), then dilates (opens) the cervix a little bit to put in a small tube and removes the pregnancy with suction. A surgical abortion may take anywhere from 5 - 20 minutes depending on where you are in your pregnancy.

Medical termination involves the use of medications that induce terminations. For most women, the medical termination process is similar to having a miscarriage. This option is only available early in pregnancy. The Judy Bridget Women's Center uses the FDA approved medication. In the small percentage of cases in which medical abortions fail, surgical termination procedures are often required to complete the termination process.
How Long Will I Feel Pain After An Termination
Every woman experiences pain differently and what seems very painful to one person may not seem painful at all to another. The physical experience that you have during an termination will vary depending on the type of termination you choose to have (surgical vs. medical termination) and the type of anesthetic you choose (local vs. IV sedation).
Women who choose to have a surgical termination with a local anesthetic will often tell us that they experienced strong cramping and a feeling of pressure during the procedure. How intense the cramps are will vary from person to person. Mild cramping (like menstrual cramps) after a surgical termination will usually last for one or two days, though it is normal to have cramping on and off for a few weeks. This cramping should be alleviated with over the counter pain medication.
Women who choose to have a medical termination will often tell us that they experienced very strong cramping and heavy bleeding that subsides within several hours. Mild cramping (like menstrual cramps) after a medical abortion will usually last for one or two days, though it is normal to have cramping on and off for a few weeks. This cramping should be alleviated with over the counter pain medication.
Severe, intense pain is not normal after an termination and could be an indication that something is not OK.
You can expect to get a normal period about 4 to 8 weeks after terminations. Often the first menstrual period after an termination is heavier than normal.
Generally, you can start having sexual intercourse about 5 days after your termination. We recommend waiting to have sex until after you have a follow-up exam 2 - 5 days after your procedure. You can conceive immediately after termination , before your next period starts, so be prepared with a method of contraception before you resume having sexual relations.
